Hi Robert,
It seems that you're trying to pass the table name dynamically. Instead of
doing it using setString why don't you store it in a variable and add that
variable in the perpareStatement itself?
Try this.
Warm regards,

I've also tried PreparedStatement pstmt = conn.prepareStatement("Select
column1 from ?"); In case the '*' was causing a problem. Still no luck. Is
it even possible to dynamically assign the name of a table with a
PreparedStatement?? Am I forgetting something??
